The system as it works now is fraught with issues, on both a national and local level.

Currently, the state does not even get W-2 forms to compare against the returns filed until after after tax season is over. This past year, employers were not required to submit their W-2 forms to the government until after 4-2-2012. And the forms are not even sent to the state. They go to the IRS/SSA first, then when they are through with them, they forward them on to Oregon past the 4-15 deadline.

ANY on-line model is a waste of time and money. No question. College is not about sitting in front of a computer screen listening to a bot spew words.

99% of all graduates use nothing from their undergraduate degree that was learned in the class room. Maybe some accounting/engineering/technical skill is learned and used. Nothing that would comprise of 36 months of college.

All the rest (99%) experience on-the-job training from their first employer. I am one of the above mentioned.

Not all students are destined to 4 year degrees. 40% of all college enrollment is at a part time basis in a JC. Somebody needs to fill certain jobs that do not require a degree. This is not a knock against people who do not go to college, I am stating a simple fact.
